No. I think you're cherry picking. You could count the amount of 121 fatals on two hands in the last 20 years. The margin of error to make any conclusions from this limited data set would be off the charts.


I'm shouting down obvious bias. Your ideas aren't worth hearing.

Those are quick ones off the top of my head.

Both of those were complete hull losses involving everyone killed. So what is the point of pointing out a cockpit that is not two white males? Both of those had two white males and all were killed and German Wings was a suicide…this whole debate is ridiculous.
US only, we can't control foreign. If you want to count foreign you have to count ALL of them, not just N. Europe. There are dozens...

If you actually believe that crap you are a mistake of a human being and don’t deserve to live.

Lay off the insults or you're out of here.

I didn't even state any ideas, I pointed out that the FACTS are there and perhaps they should be considered.

The facts are cherry picked like I said before.

This debate is trash. We are all human and can make mistakes. Our race/gender does not make us better. It’s all skills, training, etc. sure we have differences but to think we are somehow invincible is beyond foolish and that thinking is absolute trash.

Nobody’s changing anyone else’s minds so I just try and avoid politics and religion talks altogether…

There’s politics and religion…and then there’s being a **** poor human being. The latter is something that can’t be debatable.

As stated earlier, the small number of accidents means the law of small numbers is at play. Nothing we can Google can allow us to draw any statistically sound conclusions. Without access to FOQA data, saying “women/(insert race) are bad pilots” only reveals your own internal bias.

“diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI). I want to know if the moderators of this board abide by this. I’m thinking the mods are all white bros. I’m thinking just by posting this I’ll be white washed.
